A Scots carer has been struck off after repeatedly sending unsolicited pictures of his penis to four female colleagues.
Alexander McLean was hauled in front of the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) after earlier being convicted at Falkirk Sheriff Court.
The 32-year-old perv admitted sending sexually explicit images of his genitals to one co-worker from his home address on February 1, 2020.
The care home support worker then repeatedly sent similar x-rated pictures to another colleague on February 10 - causing her to be "distressed and alarmed".
The fiend struck again with a third victim on March 31 before targeting a fourth woman with multiple pictures on May 11.
McLean has now been banned from the social care profession after his “deliberate, highly offensive and crude” behaviour.
In a decision notice, the SSSC said: “Social service workers must treat their colleagues with dignity and respect and should communicate in an appropriate way.
“In addition, social service workers must not harm or exploit their colleagues. You sent four of your female colleagues unsolicited images of your penis.
“Your behaviour amounts to sexual misconduct and is so serious that it is fundamentally incompatible with professional registration.
“You caused your colleagues distress and put a strain on their personal relationships with their partners. You kept sending explicit images even after you were asked to stop.
“This raises attitudinal concerns and calls into question your suitability to work as a social services worker.
“There was a pattern of behaviour involving four different people which raises concerns over your values.
“You have apologised but there is no evidence that you have taken any steps to change your behaviour.
“We don’t have reassurance that you won’t repeat the behaviour which places people at risk of harm. We need to find your fitness to practise impaired to protect the public.
“Members of the public would not be happy about you working as a social services worker after acting in this way.
“We need to find your fitness to practise impaired to set clear standards of professional conduct. It is in the public interest to find your fitness to practise impaired.”
McLean, who later lost his job, was placed on supervision for 12 months by the court in February and ordered to perform 100 hours of unpaid work.
He was notified by the care watchdog in April this year and did not request a full hearing in front of a panel.
The striking off order came into effect on May 18, 2022.
